Service: Voting Trial Using NEM's Blockchain

Responsible organisation: Ukraine Central Election Commission (Central-Government)

The Ukraine Central Election Commission is investigating the use of blockchain in elections in a "test vote" that was created in partnership with a local NEM Foundation group, using NEM's blockchain platform. The transactions used test coins that were kindly given the representative of the NEM Foundation in Ukraine. The blockchain test environment had 28 nodes. The official's work represents the latest effort to apply the technology for tabulating votes, with the idea being that blockchain could be used to create an immutable record – or, at least, an auxiliary one – to help ease issues when tallying final counts.
